On Sunday, the Swiss are called to vote to decide whether military service will be replaced by a mandatory civil service for all citizens, regardless of gender, and to vote on a climate tax on the inheritances of the wealthiest citizens. The Swiss government and parliament have recommended rejecting both initiatives, arguing that they could affect the economy. The civil service proposal, supported by Noémie Roten, aims at gender equality and the involvement of women in community services, while critics like Cyrielle Huguenot argue that it would deepen existing inequalities. The second initiative, 'Future Initiative', proposes a 50% tax on inheritances exceeding 50 million Swiss francs, generating funds for the ecological transition. Campaign posters emphasize the need to tax the super-rich to save the climate.
